The implementation of this type of interdisciplinary teaching allowed primarily to diagnose predispositions and interests of the students and perform various professions of the future in a changing global world. The project activities were a great way to motivate pupils at age 13-16 to learn English harder. The establishment of the E-career centres at schools and the project activities enriched the educational offers of the partner schools.
